Okay, I know this is a bit of an odd picture, but it is representative of my relief at finally having a job after 6 months of unemployment (I'll start one day this week). Normally, when we eat spaghetti, I only make 1/2 a box of pasta (about 8 oz). And inevitably, we end up a bit short on noodles, so I'd have to make one extra serving after the fact. Tonight? I made the whole box! And you know what, it was worth throwing away 50 cents worth of noodles to finally feel like we could eat what we wanted without having to stress about the money. I probably won't do it again; I hate wasting both food and money, even if it is just 50 cents. But for one night, it was glorious!
